In the practical test, the Zonder Base Jet from ZEEGMA largely lived up to its advertising promises. The suction power on hard floors left nothing to be desired, the test area was completely clean after cleaning and left no visible residue.
The hoover also performed very well on carpets , removing even stubborn dirt effortlessly so that the carpet looked almost as good as new.
The handling and ergonomics of the appliance were satisfactory, although the telescopic suction tube was somewhat uncomfortable to use for taller people, as it is a little short despite the maximum extension length. Overall, the vacuum cleaner is very comfortable to use and the Zonder Base Jet is easy to transport and store thanks to its low weight of less than 5 kg.
The cleaning concept of the appliance is well thought out and requires minimal effort. The dust container can be easily removed and emptied.
The Zonder Base Jet from ZEEGMA has proven to be a powerful and user-friendly hoover in practical tests, which impresses above all with its high suction power and extensive range of accessories. Minor weaknesses in ergonomics and noise levels only slightly spoil the overall impression. Overall, the Zonder Base Jet offers an effective and convenient cleaning solution that is suitable for various surfaces.

*Themaximum score is 100 points
On the Amazon platform, consumers rate the product with an average of 3.6 stars. One common criticism is that the workmanship is not particularly robust, which can lead to problems with prolonged use. Many customers like the fact that the hoover is very light and easy to handle. In our practical test, we were able to confirm that the suction power on hard and carpeted floors was very good and that the ergonomics are suitable for smaller people. However, the noise level during operation and the short telescopic handle could be seen as potential for improvement for taller people.
Prices of up to €169.59 are charged on the internet for equivalent products. Very affordable products are available from as little as €49.99 . The Zonder Base Jet hoover from ZEEGMA is therefore currently in the lower price segment with a price of €65.99. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is very good.
